They could definitely make their Snow White adaptation stand out from the other recent attempts by switching up the casting for her. I doubt they will though since they love playing it safe despite all their safety nets

I actually like Emma Watson as Belle, minus the singing. But the aesthetics aren't doing it for me, and the headline about how it'll be "darker and edgier and more relevant" or some such didn't sit well with me at all. And why is the Beast's actor so goddam OLD? I did not imagine that Belle and the Beast were more than a year or two, MAYBE three, apart.

It'll definitely make a lot of money, but I do have a feeling it will be a critical failure. Or maybe not a failure per se, but more like 50-something % on Rotten Tomatoes, like Alice in Wonderland and Maleficent.
